Ella Stansfield and all her fantastic friends did an amazing job running either the full or half Dunedin Marathon on Sunday - Ella's wonderfully designed tee shirts caught everyone's eyes. Brain Injury Otago are so humbled and grateful for all these wonderful people running to raise awareness, and to all you wonderful people that have donated money in support of Ella. Thank you so much.
